The Americans seem to have a very poor opinion of India. Most Americans write us off as an undeveloped third world country and others accuse us of stealing their jobs, but let me assure you thats its just one part of the picture. Our middle class alone is larger than the entire population of the U.S. We do have poverty but then again over a Billion people some are bound to be be. The poverty rate has fallen from 80% when we got independence to 20% now and will be completely eradicated in the next 20 years if our economy continues to grow at the present rate. Besides we are democratic, diverse and secular, have a highly skilled workforce and share many common values with the U.S.

Why are they seen as a "superior"race when it comes to other minorities? I don't think any one race is superior to others,but from what i notice,people seem to have alot of resentment against them,especially blacks,or other minorities.

Yes, there have been a few groups, and a lot of individuals who have used it, and abused it, as a symbol of their bigotry and hatred. But, what does it really represent in American history and the heritage of the South?

It is one thing to be proud of one's heritage, and another thing to shun and disdain the heritage of another man's race. But there is so much gray space, so many cultural and social boundaries and standards that the difference is rarely ever defined and certainly never pointed out if it is seen. Has ethnic sensitivity on all ends of the spectrum blinded us to eccentric individuals who use their ancestral histories and their heritage either as an excuse to avoid their mistakes and flaws as an individual, or as a tool to push away and shun all those who aren't their own race because of thier own personal prejudice while they pretend to fight for equality and/or righteousness? Or has political correctness just numbed us to these social injustices? How do u differentiate between pride and double standards? And why is everyone afraid to point it out? And if you are not, how do you go about doing it, and what is your response to those that attempt to reprimand and chastise you for doing so?

I want to give a lump of coal as a Christmas Gift so the recipient will hopefully open their eyes to what they are doing is wrong. The recipient is used to receiving very nice gifts from me and I plan to wrap it nicely in multiple boxes....each box will reveal another box inside of it.....until they finally reach their Prize... I live in Southern California.
